Abstract

In the applications of high-temperature superconductors (HTS), the HTS tapes are usually exposed to the external magnetic field with different orientations. The critical current and AC loss are affected by both the field amplitude and field angles due to the anisotropy of HTS tapes. In this work, we first introduce the experimental system to measure the magnetization loss in HTS tapes based on the calibration-free method. Then, we present the magnetization loss results in 4.8-mm-wide AMSC wire, 4-mm-wide SuperPower wire, 4-mm-wide SuNam wire, and 10-mm-wide Fujikura wire in a perpendicular applied field at 77 K. The field amplitude is up to 100 mT, and the frequency varies from 44.2 to 87.1 Hz. We also present the magnetization loss in AMSC wire, SuperPower wire, SuNam wire, and Fujikura wire at different field angles. The field angle varies from 10 to 90 in 10 steps. The loss reduction with the decreasing of the field angle shows the anisotropic property of HTS tapes. We finally plot the measured magnetization loss of the samples as a function of the magnetic field amplitude normalized by the field angle to verify an empirical formula.
